Centralized Pool of All Your Resources

Organizations that have multiple offices, have resources spread in different locations, cities & even countries.Further these resources maybe grouped under multiple teams, departments and be working on different projects.This leads to a lack of visibility of your organization’s resources and diminishes ability to efficiently identify qualified resources when required.

eRS Cloud resource management tool, maintains a centralized directory of all your resources along with all possible information (skills, qualifications, certificates etc.). This information is shared with restricted users across the organization based on their access rights. Having a centralized directory, makes searching & identifying the right resource across multiple offices, geographies, teams very easy.

Centralized List of All Projects

Organization might undertake multiple projects of different types at any given time. Projects might be in various stages and this information is often spread across teams and departments responsible for individual projects. This makes reporting about projects and resources ineffective and often incorrect.

eRS Cloud maintains complete list of all your projects in one place. Project profile forms and custom fields allow capturing all possible information that can later be used to filter and identify projects quickly.

Centralized project list is shared with all users across the organization based on their access rights, so users have access to project information on need to know basis. Having a centralized list of projects provides accurate and clear visibility of projects and their statuses based on which organization can make key decisions.

eRS Cloud uses algorithms that measure and report on resource utilization at all levels (resource, project, team, office etc.). This information is updated in real-time whenever a booking is created, deleted or updated.

Efficient Resourcing Plans with Availability Report

Information about availability of resources is important to take critical decisions regarding initiation of new projects and to make effective hiring plans. This information is often buried in spread sheets, notebooks of various teams members and managers.

Report gets updated in real-time whenever a booking is created, deleted or updated. This facilitates making efficient resourcing and hiring plans for short, medium and long term.

User Access on ‘Need to Know’ Basis

View and / or edit rights can be assigned at resource level, project level or by any other grouping (manager, team, department, office etc.).

Manage Multiple Resource Types

eRS Cloud resource management software allows scheduling resources of any type. Every resource type has a profile form for information capturing. Configurable fields allow capturing information according to requirements of each resource type. Example: Skills for employees and Capacity for meeting rooms.

Reports show utilization and availability figures according to resource types and schedule can be configured to show different types of resources scheduled against projects.

Manage Resources on Different Types of Projects

Not all projects are same. Some can be related to marketing, some engineering, some consulting, some can be small projects and others can be large.
